lily pads and paint

I love my new house. every morning when I wake up I'm inspired. I can't keep up with all the ideas that are flooding my brain. the count down for my show has begun. I need to make a check list of the 'get it done now stuff'. as of 20 minutes ago I have completed four large paintings and four small paintings. in fact I should be painting right now. but I wanted to say hello.
this morning when I was outside checking the wogs I discovered four lily pads are in bloom in the fountain. Oh so pretty. I also saw freshly hatched little pollys, so small and translucent. Amazing!
The other day in search for felt for a friend I found my owl bodies. they have been MIA since we moved. I think I will bring some to life later this afternoon. well I'm gonna go eat cookies.

wogs and boxes

it has been a whirlwind the past couple of weeks. we moved into a really great house, i had a great time participating in noise pop'n'shop, and my polywogs have been hatching.
are house is still half full of boxes. most of the important stuff has been found. i can make coffee and get dressed in more then one outfit. what more do you need? i'm mostly obsessed with my wogs. they are so amazing. i made a hatching home for them. i still have eggs that are developing. i feel like a five year old every morning when i check on them. i'll take pictures so you can see.
i started painting saturday when we got back from a field trip to utrehct. i got huge pieces of paper. so shiny, clean, and waiting. i started three new paintings. i'm going to paint all day today. i can't wait. i also got new tubes of fluorescent red, my most favorite colour. oh so happy! i'm gonna go paint.

POP AND SHOP!

O.K. i ment to have this up sooner. this is info on the pop and shop stuff. i'm super excited. There is going to be a lot good stuff, so please come check it out. i've been sewing till my fingers bleed. i made a whole basket of owls and they like to stare, and i like to stare back at them. they are so flip'n cute they kept distracting me from all the other things i was working on. i just wanted to play with them. Moving right along. i will also have a handful of shrinky dink drawings for sale and of course my other dolls that some of you may be familiar with.
I can't wait to see all your smiling faces.

You need to come and visit me there! There will be all sorts of
cool stuff there in addition to my supercute critters and stylish
hairpins. It takes place this coming *Sunday March 2* from Noon - 5pm @
12 Galaxies in San Francisco.

Admission is FREE. And, there's a pancake & waffle brunch too! For
more info visit the Noise Pop site. Let me know if you have any questions, otherwise I hope to see
you there!

pretty little things

Today i am off to the studio to put finishing touches on my stuff. this sunday is noise pop shop. i have links and pictures that i will post tonite. please check back. i will also post pictures of my owls. i want to keep them but that would be greedy. i'll be taking them with me to 12 galaxies. i better get to work.

when it rains, it pours.

every day for the last i don't know how long, I've been meaning to post on my blog. it has been far to long. i have pictures and stuff. so much stuff and finished projects that i can't keep up. so i have decided to start over. well kind of.
i have an upcoming show in North Carolina in this rad design store. i got into noise pop shop in San Fransisco, i have more ideas then time. I'll get links and updates as they come to me and post them. I'm getting more computer literate. i need to get more computer literate. i mean i really need to. these things take time.
i have a good friend that is going to modify my website so it is easier for me to keep it current. I'm very excited.
oh and we are in the middle of moving. when it rains, it pours. which it has been doing a lot of. for several days now it has been sunny. this makes it very hard not to be outside digging in the dirt.
enough of me rambling. time to get to the studio and make more art.

revisit the tundra and friends

i finally have pictures for you of the tree sweater-ing in south dakota. i'm very pleased on how well the pictures came out. i need to contact my friends to find out if they are all still up.
the very sweet softies are from the product development i did for serena and lily. i heart them. i hope you do to.

new studio

happy day! oh happy day! today was the second day in my new studio. it has window, and i can see trees. i love my new studio. it is small and full of creative power.
yesterday i designed a new doll and today i designed another doll. i made several of each in a variety of colours. they are so cute it hurts. they are going to be published in a book. I'll get some pictures up one of these days. any way the one doll is a boy/girl in a bear suit and they like my friend Brooke and my sweet baby sister. i need to make some with pigtails. the other is an owl based on a painting i made for my show at Maude some time back. i sold the painting and i miss it terribly. but i think art needs to go out into the world. so i made this funny linen owl with psychedelic eyes and stitched belly. i think i like them more then the painting, cuz they are squeeezable. well that is all i know for now.
